Archeo (FR)

*French version

Archeo (FR) turns your living room into a genuine archaeological dig site! Working as a team, you become budding paleontologists armed with a real suction-cup shovel, ready to dig through four layers of terrain to unearth dinosaur bones. Every tile you flip might hide a treasure: a fossil piece to add to one of five reconstruction boards, a wheelbarrow to fill, or a nasty stone that dangerously wears down your tool. The suspense builds with every scoop, and the satisfaction of watching a complete skeleton take shape is instant. Cooperation, dexterity and a bit of luck combine for a tactile, immersive play experience built for curious little hands.

Archeo is for you if you dream of digging up buried treasure without ever leaving the game table. This cooperative game is perfect for families who love playing together instead of against each other: here, you win or lose as a team, making it an excellent first game of collective strategy for kids age 5 and up. If your child loves handling, exploring and solving small sensory puzzles, Archeo's suction-cup shovel will quickly become their favorite tool.

Archeo quickly caught the attention of the board game world: the game earned a nomination for the As d'Or Enfant 2026, one of the most coveted awards in French-language board gaming, and also won the Petit Ludik d'Or 2026 as well as Game Designer of the Year (Kids Game category) at the Play Creators Awards 2026. A great way to confirm that its one-of-a-kind, three-dimensional digging mechanic delights kids and seasoned reviewers alike.

The game is signed by designers Thomas Favrelière and Adrien Pédron, with lively illustrations by Maïa Zeidan that bring a colorful, inviting dig site to life.
